Kel gets Bazz!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jalen: "don't get fired Bill"

[stupidregister]

I get what you're saying but in the end it doesn't really matter right? Unless a team pulls off a deal for someone established (Holiday), it's just shuffling trash and underachievers around. I'll sit back and enjoy a bunch of scrubs not knowing where they're going while a bunch of middle age guys try and one-up each other via reports from social media.

Just don't want the Bulls to take a stiff. Get a big, fearless perimeter scorer to play the 2 or make Deng replaceable. Would also be okay with getting Thomas Robinson so they don't have to worry about replacing Boozer.

Kel gets Bazz!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great fit, if it happens. Westwood connect to Love, plus a good wing to move alongside Rubio on the break.

i feel sick, going to walk up the block for a minute... i'm sure this is only temporary

right? bros?

Jamaal Franklin needs to get picked ASAP


PEACE

[stupidregister]

If the Cavs fuck my Bulls and take Franklin...you already fucked up your first pick, don't fuck up theirs.

[stupidregister]

That Russian was the other dude I wanted. Fuck.

[peanut butter]

Snell to the Bulls. I like him a lot.

Karasev and Battier have a future as the lead characters in a Perfect Strangers relaunch.



PEACE

[stupidregister]

I have no idea who that dude is. But if he can shoot, great.

[peanut butter]

He can score, then Thibz finna take that frame and turn him into a ++ defender



PEACE

Noel is gonna be a wack pro. Bennett will be much better.

first time i'm hearing someone say this

maaaaaaan. anthony bennett. damn.

he looks exactly like brandon bass, body-wise (nh)

now imagine if brandon bass had 3 point range with a textbook/balanced release/footwork on the jumper

then imagine brandon bass had legitimate handles that could get him around defenders on the perimeter

then imagine brandon bass had a few moves in the paint

just sick

charles barkley was 6'4. bennett can make it work. reggie evans gets 20 boards a game b/c he's fucking wide not a leaper (and has long arms). think a slightly shorter, less fat, more perimeter-skilled elton brand. guy's body overall is great for nba imo, despite the "lack of height"

he did an interview back in high schooL talkin about developing into a 3 for the nba...how crazy is taht? dude has obviously worked a ton on his game since then to be the 3 he wanteed to be. i think he can do it

page 5, brah...i def thought he was the best talent in this draft and i commend the cavs for picking him...he's gonna be a problem...

i thought nerlens had bust written all over him if taken first, but at 6, pairing him with a.davis...that could be one of the best defensive frontcourts quickly and for a looong time

[peanut butter]

Jazz got Dieng with a pick the Dubs shoulda had. Fuck you forever Marcus Williams.

What a crazy draft, I still can't believe Jrue got traded.

[Tired & Broke]

If we see Pierce in any other jersey that's not Boston green it will be a fucking travesty.

[peanut butter]

Kidd looks so terrified


PEACE

[peanut butter]

Know what Stern? I changed my mind. Get yours.

[Big Breeze]

For those who dont like Noel at the #1, what alternative do you propose for the Cavs?



PEACE

I like Anthony Bennett as one of the few players from this draft that has star potential. I've seen his development at Findlay Prep as a junior to his solid freshman season at UNLV. I see him as a cross between Grand-ma-ma and Elton Brand. If he wasn't currently injured, he'd go higher than where he's projected to go. If he was 6-10, we wouldn't be talking about Noel as the number one overall pick.

Lateral speed on the wing and length to guard the post are a couple of his weaknesses, but offensively, he's going to get his with a smooth inside/outside game.

With Irving, Waiters, and Bennett, that would be a nice young triumvirate to work with, but it ain't gonna come to fruition.

I praised Bennett on page 1 and ripped Noel as well.

Yea, what the hell is going on? I thought San Antonio was gonna pick him up @ 28 for sure. Looks like someone's gonna get a dope 2nd round pick.

[peanut butter]

Thats my commissioner

The Nets are the front-runners to win the 2008 NBA title. Well done.

[Joe Pesci]

I am now faced with the moral dilemma of having to root for Kevin Garnett.

On the bright side now we have a small forward who isn't a black hole on offense and a power forward who isn't Reggie Evans.

Through many trade I am hope for transform Nets into roster of favorite All-Star team from 2002.

Seriously.

How does this trade help Boston?

[Jayou Ayen]

It looks like Franklin plays in some sort of Lugz athletic boots. No wonder he fell this far.
